Hitting animals at speed is one of my biggest motorcycle fears.

Republican in the front, skinhead in the back.

What a stupid thing for Tarantino to argue with his star actress over. He should have flown in a well-qualified vintage VW mechanic and his/her crew to have that car checked over and repaired to Thurman’s satisfaction before asking her to drive it at speed.

So very often, cars try to be more than they are, or more than they should be, and their overwrought design language betrays that

I have a horror story from when I used to be a nurse. I hired on at a small town doc’s office. Single doc, me as the nurse, plus a receptionist/manager/med records gal.
